Garden Office / Room Build in 10 Minutes from Start To Finish 🛠 // Timelapse

In 2021, I decided to build a garden room to help me work from home but also to have a second living space at the bottom of the garden. I have no experience in building (I work in marketing!), so I had to learn everything from scratch which meant I made a few mistakes along the way. But with the help of other KZfaq videos and a few friends, I was able to pull together my ideal garden room that fits all my needs.
This video is a quick timelapse of the whole 5 month process but if you’re interested in seeing more detail on each step then you can head to this playlist.

Awesome project, thank you for sharing the process, Rich. I am planning on building a garden room over the winter and found your videos very informative.

This is a great step-by-step video Rich, well done on the build !! Did you ever work out how many hours/days it took you to complete?

@Ironman5631 2 жыл бұрын

Brilliant job Rich, especially as you're not in the building trade. I'm looking at building something similar (we already have a 3x3m concrete slab so should save a few quid/hours), although will probably use SIPS panels. I'll show this video to 'she that must be obeyed' as a source of inspiration/gentle arm twisting🤣 Once again, very well done mate👍

Hey Rich great job! I read it was a five month process, obviously this was in your spare time. If you had to guess, how many days work was it?

great video looks amazing. where did you purchase the grey doors from?

@richclifford4571 Жыл бұрын

Thanks Veronica! I got the doors from Screwfix via a company called Crystal. I just looked and unfortunately they don't stock them anymore. Mine are 2m wide, Anthracite Grey uPVC doors and I did a quick Google and can see a bunch of options :)

Great job/collection of videos. A couple of questions spring to mind (for now…): What was the process for getting electric into the building? From your experience to date, have you required any heating in the room?

@richclifford4571 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks John! I'll do my best to answer your questions. 1. I was lucky enough to have electricity already laid down to the end of my garden. If you don't have this already then you'll need to dig a trench and run an armoured cable down the garden. I didn't do any videos on electrics because I didn't feel knowledgeable enough to talk about it but essentially I have a circuit for lights and another for plugs. I then had an electrician sign off all the work I did. 2. Yes, in the winter it does get cold! I have a small 1100W electric heater (www.electricradiatorsdirect.co.uk/haverland-designer-rc-wave-rc7wplus-electric-radiator-anthracite-1100w/?mc_cid=38b5b975f6&mc_eid=14f2740f43) that does the job though. The lowest temperature it got to over the winter was probably -1 or -2 Celsius and for that temperature it took around an hour or 2 to get up to 18 degrees which is my target temp. The insulation is good though and maintains the heat well. In December it cost me £20 for the month to heat and I used it every day in the week for work. I hope some of that info is helpful!

How much take you cost if that 😊

@ssa12654 11 ай бұрын

You didn't put dpm down before putting the insulation boards in. If the timber absorbs moisture the insulation boards will be pointless.

Nice work! By the way, is horizontal roof not so durable as inclined one?

@richclifford4571 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks! I think a flat roof with the rubber membrane is very durable. A pitched roof was never an option for me due to height restrictions. I would have had to get planning permission to have a pitched roof.
